(this probably wouldn't make much sense even if you read the original first)
well crud. i
thought
he was gone
for good
hadn't seen him
for a year
or more
he used to
rummage around
my backyard
(and front)
about as long
as i can
remember
weird
there was plenty
of food around
last summer. i
guess he got
hurt
or
sick
or
something scared
him away
(?)
after a
while i stopped
feeding him
well no, not really
feeding him
just leaving out
table scraps
and stuff
anyway
must have
been monday
(oh, and he
dug through the
trashcans, too. i
should'a found
a lid
or something
)
or tuesday
remember
no
monday
he was sniffing
around
again
like he had never
left
no, he hadn't grown
actually. i
just forgot
how big
he was
and
mangy
looks hungry too. i
gotta be
careful going out
he's growling
hasn't learned any
new tricks
or really
changed much
but his face
is still
as friendly
as ever
